Like a volcano, the Arewa group has come for Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan while simultaneously extending a warm hand of support to the Senate President, Godswill Obot Akpabio, over the standing sexual allegation case leveled against him.
The Arewa People’s Assembly spared no words as they described the Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial District with appalling adjectives such as blackmailer, serial liar, domineering woman, and tormentor wife, among other unprintable names.
The group has called for her indefinite suspension from the Senate’s plenary, citing that her pettiness is becoming unprofessional and uncalled for.
The group, through its National Coordinator, Alhaji Auta Balarabe, and Director of Orientation and Mobilization, Mallam Basir Gowon, suggested on Monday that Natasha’s suspension from the Senate should span a year and even longer if her demeanor is perceived to be unrepentant and strong-headed.
They wrote:
“We in the Arewa Peoples Assembly (APA) cannot be cajoled by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan frivolities.โ
“This is a Senator who was brought into the Senate through judicial pronouncement clearly many months after the inauguration of the National Assembly. The same man she denied sex graciously made her the Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Local Content. She didnโt raise any issue as at that time. She didnโt remember that Akpabio, whom she refused her sex advances was generous to the extent that he made her the Chairperson of a Grade A Committee.
“She has to wait until she was removed as Chairperson of Local Content Committee around February 3rd 2025, probably due to acts of misdemeanours before her brain was configured to remember that Akpabio had approached her for sex and she refused. This is crass nonsense and flagrant acts of blackmail.โ
โWe suggest that Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan be referred to medical experts for thorough mental evaluation. She appears unwell mentally. Why is she the only woman politician being sexually harassed by every man?
Before now, she blackmailed former Governor Yahaya Bello, Senator Dino Melaye and former Presidential aide, Reno Omokri on the same accusation that they want to sleep with her. In the case of Reno Omokri, she was forced to eat the humble pies as she was compelled to apologise when it became clear that she lied to discredit the gentleman. Itโs now the turn of the Senate President to be maligned and denigrated by the blatant liar and dishonest woman.โ
โSenator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan is the one blackmailing accomplished and prominent men in order to gain attention and remain in public psyche. How does she rate herself? She must have over rated herself as the only beautiful woman, whom no man can resist. She should be purged of this blackmail tendencies to pull down menfolk. She canโt be the only woman around that every man want as sex toy.โ
โWhat do we expect from a domineering woman who blackmailed her present husband to remain in marriage? At a point when Chief Emmanuel Uduaghan was sufficiently and thoroughly suffocated, the Warri Kingdom Chief opted to bolt away but the emperor wife refused to let go. She slammed the bewildered Itsekiri chief with a N20 billion law suit apparently to compel the man to remain in the excruciating and psychologically suffocating relationship. The man was forced to beat a retreat and returned under the control of his tormentor wife.โ
โNo right thinking person should take this rabble rouser serious. She was being sexually harassed by the President of the Senate and yet her family and that of Akpabio remained very close until she decided to throw caution into the winds. Our findings showed that the family ties between them informed the decision by Akpabio to appoint her as Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Local Content in the first instance. She has clearly mismanaged the relationship.
โHer story lacks merit and credibility. Those taking her seriously are idle and petty like her. They are engaging in mere speculations.โ
To this end, we call on the Senate to suspend her from plenary for one year in the first instance and the suspension must remain in force until she purges herself of dishonest tendencies and unwarranted falsehood and blackmail which have become her stock in trade especially against high profile men.โ
The suspension should be extended beyond one year if she display unrepentant postures,โ the group added.
